7.3.5.5.4.1 NCO Update

The NCO FCW and phase can be updated dynamically. Additionally, the NCO update signal can be masked for each DDC (nco_update_mask[7:0]). The NCO update signal can be sourced from software (sw_nco_sync), or by leaking the internal SYSREF (SYSREF_INT) to update the NCOs. Updating the NCO FCW and phase is a two step process:

  1. The new FCW and phase must be written
  2. An nco_update signal must be issued to apply the new NCO settings
ADC34RF72 NCO Update with all control signals Figure 7-32 NCO Update with all control signals

The nco_update_mask[7:0] is used to mask the nco_update signal from specific DDCs, thereby; allowing the update of the NCO for only a subset of the DDCs. When the NCO update signal is sourced from software (sw_nco_sync), the nco_update_mask for DDC [x] and DDC[x+1], where x∈{0,2,4,6}, should be configured identically as the sw_nco_sync signal is shared for DDC [x] and DDC[x+1].
